The pain, particularly the gas pain, is the worst.

Every post I've read says the 3rd day was the worst. It was the worst day for me too and I didn't have any other procedure done. It will get better. Good luck!

Day three was the absolute worst. I was banded on June 13. Good luck!

Hi everyone, I'm Stella and just had the procedure on Wednesday, June 13. I am having serious regrets now-mainly due to the gas pain. Has anyone felt like they made the wrong choice? I am scared that this awful feeling will never go away. Thanks, Stella

I was banded June 13. Still hurting pretty bad from the gas. Can't really get the protein stuff down I feel so full. This truly is the hardest thing I've ever done.

So my stomach has been making nonstop noise all day, the gas pains are the worst (3days post op) I feel so full and have barely had any water all day. How am I supposed to get down this protein? Today I'm supposed be starting full liquids. It's Saturday and the office is closed. I don't know what to do. I'm still going crazy, questioning my decision, but I'm still trying to keep all the positive things people said in mind. I just don't know what to do.

I've been walking and don't feel much relief. I haven't gotten any protein today at all. I feel so full. I hope it gets easier and better for you too. Keep in touch. Let's see how the rest of the week goes.

The gas pain is the worst

Third day after surgery or does that include the day you had surgery? I really hope this doesn't get worse

I really appreciate all the tips. I'm telling my friend I feel like I'm dying. I have been walking but I am getting so tired so easily. I'm trying to keep everything in mind and learning how to deal with these changes. I keep reading other threads trying to learn.

Thank you! I feel awful. Can't wait to actually be able to eat something.
